    Will Shipley

    Shipley wasn't nearly as good this season as last season. Any thoughts as to why?

    Types of Athleticism

    "In the mid-'80s no athlete had a broader range of athletic skills than Danny Ainge, who, as an NBA All-Star guard, a near-scratch golfer and an infielder good enough to make the major leagues, was actually a better all-around athlete than Michael Jordan. Yet when Ainge was introduced as the...

    2024 Indoor Season

    Jakub Syzmanski of Poland topped Martinez's performance, running a WL time of 7.47 in Germany today. It's also a National Record. Martinez was in the race, but DQ'd. Assume it was a false start.

    Thoraval followed up his 6.60, with a 6.62 in the heats today at a meet in France. Unfortunately he didn't do as well in the final, coming in 6th in 6.66. Also running were the Brits - Morgan-Harrison, Andrew Robertson, and Adam Thomas.

    I think they are the Top 3 RBs, of those who weren't given a proper chance to succeed.

    Yoshihide Kiryu of Japan set a NR in the 60m today in Ostrava, winning the race in 6.53. Good to see him performing so well after several years of injuries. Meanwhile, Samuele Ceccarelli was 7th in 6.74. Wonder what's up with him?

    2024 Indoor Season

    New name to follow: Antoine Thoraval. 22 yr old sprinter from France. Recently set a new PB of 6.60. That makes him 6th best French of all-time at that distance. Looks like a pocket rocket. It will be interesting to see how much he can lower his 100m PB (10.32) this season.

    2023 NFL Conference Championship Games

    SF has been outplayed the last 2 games. I think a bit of luck and the home field advantage got them through. Their defense has been poor to fair, and the play calling has been average. If they play like their last 2 games, against KC, that's a win for the Chiefs.

    2023 NFL Conference Championship Games

    Didn't the Lions have as many as 5 white defensive players on the field at times? Cominsky and Hutchinson on the defensive line, and Anzalone, Campbell, and Rodriguez at linebacker. Or were they never on the field all together?

    2023 NFL Conference Championship Games

    I am rooting for the Niners all the way; but if the Lions win, it's not so bad. They are playing the whitest defense I have seen in years, and Goff is their offense. Unlike the 49ers, they don't have any other offensive superstars.

    Someone else to keep an eye on this year, is Maira Scott from Ohio. She ran 11.41 (0.5w) last year in the 100m, and 23.20 (0.7w) in the 200m. Like Abby Steiner she is from Ohio - about 120 miles away from where Abby went to high school - and she is approaching Abby's Ohio high school records...
